This is a hobby. Its supposed to be fun. If you aren't having fun, you're doing something wrong.

Beautiful. I love the subtle weathering of a vehicle in use but well cared for by its crew.
If I may offer some advice, it would be to clean up mold seams and where parts used to be connected to the tree. This is most obvious on the storage cage on the engine deck end on the ends of the bar armor in the last 2 pictures.

LOL, I do clean them up...I'm just not that good at it! I dug too deep on the storage cage, and there were just so many bar ends that I just slapped paint on them! Not noticeable on the model, only on the macro pictures, which are fun but accentuate blemishes. I'll try harder next time...that's the name of the game! Thanks, Gary.

You sound just like me. I go at them for a while, then I get impatient. And even when I think I've got them all, I find more after I paint.
